I guess that means no IDEs doing refactoring or automating common code. Not linters altering code, etc... right ? Because that's the same thing.

How about if AI generates code in a file, then I copy/paste bits... like stack overflow ?

I assume most IDEs allow you to use their snippets under many different licenses. LLMs have mostly been trained on public git repos under lots of different licenses (most importantly, Copyleft licenses)
